This surrealistic, documentary-like grotesque film that is full of gags, shows us around a factory in the seventies in Hungary. In the outskirts factory of Kőbánya workers celebrate the foundation members and want to present the oldest member, Uncle Benda, now a pensioner, with a golden ring. His grandson, Merkovics Karcsi, an industrial apprentice, is in love with the foreman's daughter. But her family forbade her to meet him, so he tries to conquer the girl at the island garden party preceding the TV shooting. The busy organizers, drunk with emotions, forget the old veteran at the island. The young couple lay him down in a boat quilted with pillows. Important people only miss him in front of the cameras.
